Joë Bousquet said this quote

A star shoots bleeding across the skyline, a companion to the black wind. Silence comes sweeping across everything.

~ Joë Bousquet

Yet a mysterious gate lay open within her shadow, and all my flesh was aware of black pathways and hovels and the silence one observes when the dead are near.

~ Joë Bousquet

I gazed upon the earth and saw that a body, in its tender faithlessness, had located it in the sky. A splendid scarf of blood, looming above the abyss.
